lukuisesti

Lukuisesti is a Finnish word that translates to "numerously" or "in great numbers." It is an adverb used to describe a quantity or frequency that is large. The word is derived from "luku," meaning number, and the suffix "-is" which indicates abundance.

In everyday Finnish, "lukuisesti" is employed to convey that something has occurred or exists in a significant quantity. For example, one might say "Vieraita saapui lukuisesti," meaning "Guests arrived in great numbers." Similarly, it can be used to describe something happening repeatedly or frequently, such as "Ongelmia ilmeni lukuisesti," translating to "Problems arose numerously."

The word is a common part of the Finnish vocabulary and is used across various contexts, from casual conversation to more formal writing. Its usage emphasizes the sheer quantity or multitude of something, setting it apart from simply stating a large number. It serves as an economical way to express abundance without needing to specify an exact figure.
